Is there a BB cream that is NOT greasy?

I love Garnier BB cream.
But in this weather I notice my face is VERY shiny after applying it.
I even used Murad mattifer under it and still- by noon I am shining like a beacon!

I want something that gives me the glow of a BB cream- without the shine and grease?

Anyone have a good one?

I tried the new Loreal Youth code one and hated it. It sunk into my pores and accented them.

I use Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm from Sephora. It's pricy, but a little goes a long way. My skin feels and looks like silk, and my makeup stayes much fresher looking.

Do you wear make up over it like a primer?
Or can you wear it alone like a BB cream?

I like Clinique's. I use it in place of my Smashbox primer, but I could totally wear it alone as well without any other makeup on top.

I use Boscia, it's oil free & chemical free. I don't use anything else over or under it, except an anti-aging serum. I like that it tones down the redness & doesn't highlight my lovely crater sized pores. I get it at Sephora; it costs more than I'd like, but it works for me so it's worth it.

So far both BB creams I used made my skin break out, Smashbox and Garnier. I did love the Smashbox though. It has a built in primer. So sad I had to return it.

After trying the Garnier BB and hating it (made my skin oily and gross), I tried Smashbox and loved it! I've used it alone and it works great.

I might try the Smashbox one. At least at Ulta if I hate it I can return it.

I really loved how Garnier works but lately I am like an oil slick.
Even just putting it on I immediately feel oily.
Something has changed in my skin or the weather I guess

I wear it like a primer, its colorless.

Thought I was alone with the Garnier BB cream! I look like I applied grease to my face. I'm going to try the Smashbox one.
